Publisher's summary

Global Strike - the final book in The War Planners series.

It has been over a year since the war began. A year since China launched its surprise attack on America. EMP and cyber weapons plunging much of the nation into a dark chaos. Thousands of anti-ship missiles gutting the US Pacific fleet. A Chinese-allied North Korea launching an all-out attack on South Korea. Chinese information warfare campaigns triggering America to launch a nuclear strike on China's own nuclear stockpile. And the international political consequences that followed....

The Chinese-American war has grown cold in the past year. The two superpowers are separated by ocean-sized moats. China's strategy is to put America under siege, politically and economically. And it's working. But the flames of war will soon re-ignite.

Chinese President Jinshan is not long for this earth. With cancer giving him only a few months left to live, he is ready for his final move. A massive Chinese military transit across the Pacific, and eventually onto American soil.

The Americans are preparing. David Manning is one of the top analysts on the joint CIA-DOD Silversmith team, and he's desperately searching for a strategy to win. His brother Chase is working with American special forces and CIA teams in the Chinese-contested territory of South America. Victoria Manning is the commanding officer of a navy helicopter squadron in the eastern pacific. Lena Chou is held prisoner on an American military base.

But everything is about to change.

Time is running out.

And the Americans will need more than technology or bravery to win the war.

They will need a plan.

I Enjoyed this book

Enjoyed the book. I thought it was very entertaining. The performance was great, and the story was realistic and well thought out.

Great series.

This series appears to be long, but as I listened it seemed as time went quickly as did each book. The premis of the story was good and the storyline was complex, yet easy to follow. My only "complaint" was the ending of this book. As complex a story the series is, the ending left a lot of unanswered questions. I wish there would have been just 1 final chapter to help answer those questions. Oh well, it was still a great book and a great ending for the series.

Great series.

Enjoyed all of the books. Kept me company on my road trips, walks, and house work.

Fine read, Except for the ending......

i was looking forward to this book with both gladness and loathing because I have really enjoyed this series of books. while 98% was as great as I expected the last bit the ending that could have put that last sweet cherry on top of the previous 6 books worth was as sour as a key lime 2 months before it was ripe.
Soi look forward to any new books that Andrew Watts writes I just he has better ending than this.

loved the entire series

Very good character development. I blew through the entire series at record speed. I really loved the books.

Great 6 book series

Amazingly the author maintained an exciting story line throughout the series. Even as the last book was coming to an end I wanted more. Having found a new author to add to my reading list I am happy knowing there will be more.

very nice series

I really enjoyed the entire series!!! Well worth the credits. I ended up benge listening.

Great series! Great Finale

I couldn’t stop listening. The story is complex, but not confusing like some others can get. Sporadically woke, which adds nothing to the story but distraction from an otherwise well written story. The Narrator did a great job of changing his voice for the multiple characters. 4 stars only for not getting any background on how to say some of the acronyms. In the Military they are usually said as a word, not spelled out. For the uninitiated, that won’t take away from the story, just something that could have made the telling even better.

the book and the series are excellent

As a Navy veteran I thoroughly enjoyed this book in the series.

With current events between China and the United States this book really captures your imagination.

Great

Absolutely outstanding The greatest series of books I’ve listened too! I can’t say enough about how realistic it was!
